One of my biggest flights of fancy is that we should just push Christmas back to Jan 25. There's no need to crowd out Thanksgiving and there's still sooo much winter to slog through after the big holidays are over. Let's leave lights and decorations up for another month!!

Sure it's a kitchen table issue but it seems more trouble than it's worth to make something as nebulous and manipulable as "the cost of a Thanksgiving dinner" an economic indicator in the first place

"Our AI is a simulacrum of your dead loves ones" is grotesque but has an understandable appeal. "Our AI is a chat bot who praises your video game wins" is... pathetic to the point of being repulsive, no?
